The Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) stands as a dynamic testament to architecture’s role in shaping public life. Founded by visionary architect and philanthropist Phyllis Lambert, the CCA is a global think tank rooted in Montreal’s Shaughnessy Village. Anchored by the 19th-century Shaughnessy House, once home to a railway baron, the CCA marries heritage with innovation, framing the mansion in sleek, modern spaces that house exhibitions, archival treasures, and research facilities.

With a commitment to exploring architecture as a public concern, the CCA curates immersive exhibitions, hosts thought-provoking events, and supports research that challenges our understanding of urban spaces. Across the boulevard, the postmodern sculpture garden invites reflection with a view over Little Burgundy and Saint-Henri.
